Well, the INSTALL file says that the makefile is called 'make' and that after
you have run ./configure it should be there. However, all I can see are
makefiles that begin with a capital m. So prehaps the makefile has not been
written.
This is all very confusing.
The error response he would get from not having make installed would
be ``make: command not found'' (at least from either bash or tcsh;
I don't know of a shell that's an exception though there may be one).
The gtk+ INSTALL file doesn't say anything about what the makefile is
called (at least it doesn't with 1.1.1; presumably it doesn't in 1.0.6
either).
The makefile created by ./configure is called Makefile.
If you could provide an actual trace of the exact messages you're
given by ./configure and by make, it would be helpful.
